Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan said a U.S.-brokered truce agreement with Azerbaijan has broken down hours after coming into effect, the third time international mediators have failed to stop the worst fighting in decades over Nagorno-Karabakh.
“It’s clear that, once again it wasn’t possible to maintain the cease-fire,” Pashinyan said Monday on Facebook. “We don’t yet know how the U.S. president will react to the failure.”
